wtf1.gifWhy hasn't anybody posted in here today??!........too many Crows supporters on this site me thinks! :)

Seriously though, one thing they have going for them (as Craigy said) is that it's only February.

On the other hand, Port have to maintain that thru the season proper.........I'm yet to be convinced :devil:

Port were way too good yesterday. The score actually flattered the Crows as I think they were gifted 3 goals by the umps. I'm not overly concerned except for the attitude and approach of the Crows to the game. As I said in my OP this is the Mickey Mouse Cup, it counts for 0. But well done to the Power as they needed to win given the current situation with both the PAMFC & Power.

Not sure who was missing from the Power line up as I was really only paying attention to their youngsters for DT & SC purposes but the Crows had Bock, Tippet, Scott Thompson & Porplyzia missing. Those 4 will make a difference to the team but if they approach any AFL game with the same attitude as yesterday then they will get flogged like they were yesterday.

But it is only February and I remain confident that it will be a good year for the hoops (depending upon injuries).

didn't see the game Dave, but I don't think Tredders and a few other seniors were out there.

I reckon it was more important for Port to win yesterday than the Crows given the current situation at Alberton.......a loss to the Crows will be swept under the rug and be referred to as a loss in a Mickey Mouse comp, but on the other hand, if Port lost yeasterday, the ramifications would've been far greater.

At the moment, Port needs to win regularly in any comp just to appease the supporters and the money men.

Very true. I must admit I'm a little shocked by the result although I didn't think the crows would piss it in either.

Huh!!!

Who are these people?

Where were they last year?

No Warren Gary, Mots or Broges (amongst others) and still able to manufacture watchable footy for the first time in over 12 mths!

Not to mention that 4 of 5 of our BOG's were part of the old brigade....again, where were they last year, lol?

I'm thinking Boak, Cloke & Carlile will be players to watch this year.

Not alot of my attention goes into this competition. Was good to see Port manufacture a decent win tho.

Just thought I'ld bump this thread and say GOOOO FREEEOOOOOO!! Was good to see them play well (has been a while). Looking forward to seeing how there new players go for the rest of the season seeing Barlow had 34 disposals and 2 goals in his AFL debut! Morabito and Silvagni also played well in there first game.

Ryan, I can see your mob doing great things this year if they can keep up that sort of intensity.

Their harrassment of the Adelaide boys was relentless....they can and will upset some top sides with that brand of footy.

Big question is, can they maintain that form interstate......history proves they are one of the worst travelling teams in the comp.

Crows fans....still too early to judge IMHO.

I'm pretty sure most sides will have games they'd rather forget this year......how frequent that occurs is the key.

I reckon Adelaide coaching staff will be studying that video all week...........and Port boys will do the same re the last quarter.

Crows just didnt play well, no excuses apart from having a couple out. They are capable of playing a far better quality of football, but isn't that the trick for the other 15 teams too :cool:

Pete, Port just cant shake that last quarter slump that has almost cost them plenty of games.

Pretty early days, can't really tell who has the early jump on the competition. Look out for the Hawks, Lions and Dogs. I have a feeling Crows will be sub par this year, not by much, but enough to see them out early in September again. Itll be a real shame because some of the older guys havent got long left.

There's a few tough ones this week:

Crows vs Sydney........AAMI - Adelaide.... BUT, will be close if Adelaide play like last week.

Eagles vs Port........Suby - West Coast (they're at home)

Bombers vs Freo.......Etihad - Bombers ( Freo might get cocky and don't travel well)

Hawks vs Cats......MCG - Hawks

Thoughts??

I don't know shit, so don't go by any of the above :worship:

those boys were trying to give me a coronary last night!!

Pies v Dees....should've been 100 points, NOT 1!!!!

Collingwood deserved to lose that no doubt...talk about injustice.

Kangas....bottom 3 material....maybe even bottom 2!

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
